Applying Policies

You can apply a policy on the Config UI by associating an existing policy to a target operation or reference endpoint.

Use Policy Binding to associate the policy with one or more target operation endpoints.

To apply any registered policy to a target operation or reference endpoints, follow these steps:

Procedure

  1. Start the Config UI, if not running.
  2. Create a new configuration or select an existing configuration.
  3. Click the SECURITY tab on the right hand side.
  4. Click the Policy Binding tab on the top menu.
  5. Click the Add Property icon to add a new policy binding.
  6. Enter the following parameters for the policy:
    Type Description
    Policy Specifies a name for the policy. The policy name must be configured under Policy Mapping tab.
    URI Specifies the URI of the operation to which the policy is applied.
    Transport Specifies the transport of the request.

    For example, HTTP, JMS, or SOAP.

    Facade Operation Specifies the operation to which the policy is applied. The facade operation must be configured in the facade Operations tab.
